Fantastic mind blowing and breath taken experience! Musicians are fantastic and the candles make music so special. If you live Pink Floyd - you are going to love this one. Another on my list now is to visit Queen and ABBA!!!

Came here to watch the Candlelight tribute to Hans Zimmer. The venue is perfect in size, with a bar and multiple bathrooms available too. Once inside, the venue had been beautifully decorated with hundreds of electric candles, and the stage up front. The concert itself was breathtaking, and we will definitely be watching more candlelight concerts in the near future!
